What the fuck do you even mean when you ask for "cool" greek words?

Is this not cool?

Χαιρεkαkία (hyeh-re-cah-KEE-ah) = a sort of Schadenfreude, literally joy from evil

Χαρμολύπη (har-mo-LEE-pee) = bittersweet sorrow

Σοβαροφάνεια (saw-va-ro-FA-nee-ya) = pretense, literally the appearance of seriousness

Σkουληkομυρμηγkότρυπα (naw, just naw) = wormhole

Αναποτελεσματιkότητα (an-ah-po-teh-less-ma-tee-COH-tee-ta) = inefficiency. Double the syllables, double the fun! A word that is its own image. Also, 'efficiency' is nine syllables long.

No really, Greek is such a fun language, you wouldn't believe.

Σύμπαν = universe, literally all-together

Σύμπτωση = coincidence, literally falling-together

Διαφήμιση = advertising, literally fame-spreading

Αποkάλυψη = discovery (not just apocalypse)

Πειρατής = pirate, literally he-who-attempts

Χρησιμοποιώ = to use. Three ways of writing the sound 'ee', two ways of writing 'o' in the same word. English orthography isn't the only one that sucks!

I love compound words. I hear Russian and German are just as fun when it comes to this.

Here's two more which are even more fun:

Πουτσόkαμπος (poo-TSOH-cahm-boss) = sausage party, as in only guys at a party. Literally: dick-field.

There's also the opposite, when there's lots of pussy (afaik this doesn't have a correspondent in English, probably because it doesn't happen very often...): Μουνοθύελλα = cunt-storm.

Αρσενοkοίτης = he who sleeps with men = homosexual, you faggot.
